I guess it means she actually broke her ankle, as opposed to her just saying she did as an exaggeration.

Except that she was actually HE.

Yeah either you break it or you don't. I guess OP actually broke his, instead of his other, other ankle...?

And there's me assuming he meant he had a legitimate (ie legally acceptable) reason for breaking his ankle. Odd choice of words. Maybe he was just confused by the pain and loss of the spell-checker on his laptop.

Not that a spell-checker would've done much good anyway, as it wouldn't count "legitimately" as an incorrectly spelt word, as it's correct... Perhaps you mean an online thesaurus?

nerds.

dang. you lost your calculator wow nobody deserves that.

mine cost $150.. i'd be a bit upset too

Hes saying hes not exaggerating, he actually did break his ankle

Unfortunately, everyone steals on Marta. OP: Assuming you were in a-town, If you have the serial number for the laptop, call the APD pawn desk and give them the numbers and the pawn shops will get it back to you if someone tries to sell it. Apparently, they've got that system working surprisingly well.

You hold it and say "Ow, ow, ow, that hurts, I want my mommy!"

No, you hold it and rock back and forth saying "ssssssh... aaaaaaaah!" a couple of times. But yeah, this is nothing a good lawsuit to the bus companies won't cure.

^This. WIN. Lol

I'm assuming that if the OP is in college (backpack, laptop, notes, calculator) then it wasn't just some cheap calculator. Most math classes in college require a graphing calculator, that can cost around $150.

You aren't allowed to use a graphing/programmable calculator in college fyi.

I did -

What the fuck? What are you taking, remedial math? The only calculator you can't use is a TI-89.

Actually, you are required to in many colleges. TI-83. What 17 said.

I'd just bring a slide rule, an abacus, a straight edge, a compass and a French curve and I'd be all set, bitches.

perhaps not break as in fracture, but break as in "make not to work" is certainly possible. ;)

ok mister technical if someone breaks the ball off the femur that connects it to the pelvis is that not called a broken hip? and yet the hip is a joint and under your definition can not be broken. an ankle can be broken in many ways. any one of the bones that make up the join may break under many different circumstances and if the join in question is the ankle then yes it is called a broken ankle. you learn this in 3rd grade health class and every year after that here in the USA. on top of that basic knowledge i am also an EMT and X-ray tech. so please use your brain for something other than trying to sound like you know what your talking about.

You make yourself sound like a f^cking idiot.

Really #26? I guess my doctor and x-rays were totally wrong since it showed my ankle was fractured after falling off my horse at age 10. Guess my husband didn't really break his ankle a few days ago after falling off the front steps because they were iced over. More wrong x-rays, right dumbass? You need to go back to Elementary school.
